A lot of disco influence in the album.
Maybe too many women crying and/or moaning on some of the tracks.
I had only heard 1999 and Little Red Corvette before.
I really enjoyed D.M.S.R as a dance track. His vocals and the beats are great throughout the album.
Overall a good album, but I don't think I'll be revisiting in full any time soon.
You can really feel the energy of the crowd on some of the tracks (Worry, Worry being a stand out for me).
He really does sing the fuck out of some blues.
I'm not too big on early hip hop with some exceptions. This album was pretty good; definitely feels like its part of a transition between late 80s "goofier" hip hop and early, basic rap, and the more violent gangster rap that emerged throughout the 90s. Some really good flow on the album.
My first Bob Dylan album. I enjoyed the folk music, but his voice leaves much to he desired sometimes and at other times it's a perfect fit.
I had never heard of this group before today and I am glad I had the chance to listen to this album. I didn't fully love it; the vocals were interesting, but my main focus was some of the great instrumentals.
I'm not a big fan of a lot of the Krautrock stuff. I find it extremely repetitive at times. I like a lot of the beats on this album, but repeating Trans Europe Express 500 times does not make for good lyrics.
I liked the singer's voice, but I could not stand some of the lyrics. I had never heard of this group before today and I'm glad I had a chance to check out something new, but overall I was not a fan and I won't be continuing with more of their discography.
My second favorite Lorde album (Pure Heroine is top). This is still a phenomenal album that is just chock full of great tracks.
Ah hell yeah, my second favorite Radiohead album (behind The Bends). A classic 90s album, that enjoy re-listening to quite often.
I had not heard this Steely Dan album; it was great. I have really come to appreciate them this past year.
Teenage me was big into all kinds of metal, but adult me thinks it's just okay most of the time. This was a good album though and I enjoyed the listen.
The album is saved for me by the songs Maps, Y Control, and Modern Romance. Otherwise, I found it to be an album that was not for me. I see this album recommended often and I don't fully understand why. I love their album "Cool It Down" and wish that one had more awareness.
My first Grateful Dead album. It was a nice experience and I'll be checking out more of their stuff in the near future. I heard American Beauty is great so they'll probably be next. My favorite song from the album was Turn on Your Love Light which I was informed was a cover.
I remember bouncing off this album after a few songs last year, but this time I was all in. Very good 90s UK sound.
This has been on my list for years now. I can't say that I enjoyed it that much. I think the album is much too long and I only really appreciated a handful of songs. I was only familiar with a few of their songs prior to this listen and I think I might enjoy some of their later albums a bit more if their sound changes some.
I only know the one Fatboy Slim song and always enjoyed it.
When I started the album, I thought it was going to be annoying hearing the same lyrics repeated over and over, but as it went along I started to enjoy it more and more.
It was a great listen for my Sunday morning errands.
Not for me, but I didn't hate the listen.
I did a deep dive on the Talking Heads a few months ago and I really enjoyed what heard. Truly a revolutionary musical group that was always pushing the boundaries. Good stuff.
I had never heard of this band before and I'm happy to have found them. Not every song on the album was my thing, but there's some really good tracks that had my foot stomping along.
Never really listened to any Garbage outside of the 4 hits they had. I didn't know what to expect, but this album was quite good.
I did not enjoy this album. I don't like country and this album didn't change my mind on the matter.
Enjoyable, but not entirely my thing.
This album has all my favorite Carole King songs and pretty much most of her hits. Good stuff, but I don't know if there's another album of hers that I'd be dying to listen to.
I had never heard of this group before. An enjoyable listen, but too long of an album with too many samey-sounding songs.
Was not a fan of this album. Everybody probably thinks Born to Run is the best track, but for my money, I'd take Tenth Avenue Freeze Out over it. Both good songs though.
I really dig this album. Good from beginning to end.
Ehh, very okay album. Purple Rain is his masterpiece IMO and these other albums have some good songs, but also a lot of filler for me.
Good, but not great for me.
Okay, but far from great. There are much better early 90s hip hop groups.
Amazing album, but honestly the first 6 or so Sabbath albums are all great.
I liked, but didn't love this album. Maybe too many similar sounding songs, but goddamn do I love Robert Smith's voice. Disintegratration is still their top album to me, but this was a nice album to hear their earlier sound.
I had never heard of this group before. Overall an enjoyable album and I'll be listening to some of their other albums in the near future. Finding new groups like this is my favorite part of this random album challenge.
Some great songs. Father and Son never fails to get an emotional response out of me. Love his voice.
It may be a tad too long and a few songs maybe aren't the best, but I love ELO from this era and this is probably their best album.
A lot of the songs felt too samey and while I appreciate the inclusion of a more recent alternative, electronic-pop type band, this album fell a bit flat for me.
I had never heard anything outside of Come On Eileen and I have to say there's some good stuff here. I can see why they weren't just one hit wonder in the UK.
Caught be by complete surprise. This is not the type of music I normally enjoy. Was pleasantly surprised.
I was bit nervous to get another Yeah Yeah Yeahs album so soon after not enjoying Fever to Tell very much, but I think this a group that has gotten better over time. Cool It Down is still my favorite album of their's, but this one really good as well.
Some really good instrumentals on the album, but I didn't really like the vocals much. Lake of Fire and Plateau were two stand outs, but that might just because I like those tracks from Nirvana's Unplugged performance on MTV.
I love the first 6 Sabbath albums. Vol. 4 is my favorite, but this is probably number 2.
Really solid album, especially for a debut. I think I like their second album better, but this one has a number of great tracks. 3.5
Not my favorite Bowie album, but a solid entry.
Not a bad album, just way too long for me.
Another group I had never heard about. I liked the album and it was something a little different.
This is why I signed up for this project. Awesome music from someone I had never heard about. Great vibes all throughout the album.
My favorite doors album. Everything except Whisky Bar is great.
A nice album. I like the singers voice and the tone, but I wasn't all in on it.
I enjoyed it. Really good for 80s hip hop, but the genre has come a long way since then.
This was my first Madonna album, I had only really listened to her hits beforehand. What an enjoyable album. Each song had a different, entertaining beat. It may be a little too long overall, but it was a fun ride and I can see why she was so popular in the 80s.
A nice variety of tunes on the album. Elvis isn't my favorite singer, but I can't deny he has a nice voice that works well for faster paced, upbeat songs as well as slower, more contemplative tunes.
I generally like music like this and there were some good songs on the album, but it left a lot to be desired and I think there are bands that do this music better. Might revisit in the future or check out another of their albums because there is some interesting stuff here.
I love her voice. The songwriting isn't anyways the best and his voice isn't always my thing, but it's a nice album to put on for a relaxing time.
One of my favorite 90s bands. Sucks about what happened. We're probably missing out on some good music.
Was waiting for an excuse to finally listen to this album and the Femmes in general. Good album.
I tried to like this album. I can appreciate some of the lyricism and even some of the musical ability, but boy did some of the repetition really test me. I don't think I'll be seeking out any more Ian Dury music.
Didn't love it. Didn't hate it. Might need to relisten to it some other time.
A group I had never heard of before. I was worried this list was going to be too much classic rock. This was a nice change of pace. Really enjoyed some of these songs. I'm going to have to check out more of their music.
Almost a little too twangy sounding for me, but some good music overall. I've mainly only listened to the hits from the Stones so it was good to hear a full album and some deeper cuts.
I relistened to the album today on a nice walk around my neighborhood. I thought this album was great months ago when I first heard it and I still thought it was great today. Bring on more of the jazz random album generator!
Really good album. I've really started to love Sade's work these past few months.
The first time I listened to this album, I did not really enjoy it. It may be one of the most overhyped hip hop albums of all time and I think I went in with too high of expectations. On this second listen, I liked it more, but I still don't think it's the masterpiece some people think it is.
Great voice and smooth jazz tones. I think I liked her album Solitude more, but I'm sure she made plenty of good albums.
I was expecting not to like this album since it was so late into Bowie's career, but I had a good time with it. Bowie is not my favorite musician, but this album was enjoyable enough.
I really enjoyed this album from an artist I had never heard of before today. I will definitely be listening to more of her work in the future.
Enjoyable, but it got a little samey after awhile.
I don't know if I would consider Thin Lizzy a must hear band in your lifetime, there are quite a number of 70s rock bands that sound similar. That being said this was a good album and if you're going to pick any Thin Lizzy album to include, this would be the one.
Some great lyricism on this one. I think I liked the opening and closing tracks the best. My main problem is that it is too long; 82 minutes is a long album.
First Isaac Hayes album and had a good time. Nice smooth voice and good beats.
I've liked The Doors for so long, but had never gotten around to listening to this album in full. Very good album; I can see why some people call this their favorite.
A little too one note for my overall liking, but a good listen. Made me want to go watch a western (I did) and I enjoyed the song structure for a lot of the tracks.
This is the kind of early hip hop where I can appreciate it because of where it leads, but I don't really like it much. Beats are okay to good, but repeating the same lyrics over and over becomes tedious to listen to.
Another album that was way too overhyped IMO. Some good beats in here, but I don't love his lyrical style or cadence.
I had seen this group recommended online countless times, but never got around to listening to them, probably because their name is not that great. That was a mistake; I thoroughly enjoyed this album and will be seeking out more of their music.
I guess I'm just not a Stevie Wonder fan. He's very talented and I like some of his hits, but overall it's just not for me.
Really good album. It has damn all their hits and I feel like I'd heard every song except one multiple times before from radio play, etc. I liked the overall energy of the album.
This was a nice change of pace and I enjoyed the album. It did get a little samey after a while, but I really did enjoy the listen.
I really enjoyed this one and will be seeking out more of their work later. Some very catchy songs and the lead singer has a great voice.
This had been on my long list for awhile. Really solid album. She's got a great voice and a poetry to her lyrics. Definitely worth a listen.
I'm not the biggest Gorillaz fan, but I enjoy some of their songs. They have some really solid hits and Clint Eastwood is always good. First time listening to this album and I'd say I liked it overall, but it didn't convert me to fan.
Really good album. All 3 of his albums are very good. I think Electric Ladyland is my favorite though.
Man, if I would have known a Pixies album sounded like this, I would have been listening years ago. Very good album. I really dug the music and energy throughout.
I just couldn't really get into this one. I've heard great things and I enjoy some of their hits; I even like some southern rock, but this was just a little too country for me I think. I'll probably give it another try some other time.
Another good David Bowie album. It had been a few months since I had heard this for the first time and I enjoyed it more on this relisten, but Bowie isn't my favorite artist or anything and I think he may be someone I enjoy more for his top tracks and hits than all encompassing great album work.
I didn't know it before, but I think I might be a Fatboy Slim fan. Both of these albums have been awesome. They're great to put on and just vibe with or play in the background while you're doing other stuff. There's a real creativity to his tunes.
A great album. I was a little disappointed when I saw that Speaking in Tongues wasn't on the list, but this album is probably my favorite of the remaining four. This is a group that deserves multiple albums on the list because of how their sound and focuses changed over time.
Such a great album. I'll admit it may be a little more front loaded with the best tracks, but all around an amazing album and a very important one as well.
This was okay. I wasn't in the best mood while listening to it so that may have colored my experience. I might give a few songs another listen soon, but overall it was just fine.
I've been digging these electronic and/or all instrumental albums I've been getting lately. Very good for putting on in the background while I go about my day. This one may fall into the "a little too long and a little too samey throughout" category, but I would have probably never found this group without this project so I'm happy to have gotten to hear something new and different.
First and best Nas album. His flow was different from others and this album has a real voice to it. Great album that I've enjoyed countless times over the past however many years.
Thought it was enjoyable. Didn't really know what to expect going in, but came away impressed by a group I had never heard of before today.
I'm not really an Elvis fan, but he does have a nice voice. There is a real good energy captured on this album and I found it entertaining throughout.
A good jazz album. I don't know if I have more to say about it than that.
Very good album. Great vibes.
I'm a big fan of his first 3 albums. Good lyricist and great energy to his music. This live album has terrific energy and his voice is perfect for the lyrics he is singing. Put this on and just enjoy.
I wouldn't say that I necessarily love all the songs on this album (some of the sound just isn't my thing), but wow this is a wonderfully composed album. There is a wide range showcased here and I enjoy the message of most of the songs. I was very impressed listening to this and even though I don't think I'll be revisiting the whole album any time soon I was shocked at how well made and passionate this was. (This was my first exposure to Chapman outside of Fast Car)
Not a band I've really followed much and only know them from their 4 big hits, but they have a somewhat unique sound and there's some good instrumentals on this. Overall a good album, but it didn't make me want to dive much further into their discography.
Another win for this project. I'd never heard of this group, but ended up really liking this album. Going to check out more if their stuff.
Interesting 90s album that I liked, but didn't love. She's a good lyricist with an interesting point of view.
I liked this one a lot. Nice, easy-listening jazz album to put on and relax.
Some good hits on this and overall a good album. Enjoyed listening to it, but I don't know how often I'll be coming back to it.
I was only familiar with the Bee Gees from their disco hits (which I actually enjoy for the most part). I was not really aware of their earlier stuff being so different. I may need to relisten to this one to really evaluate it, but overall I found it just wasn't my thing.
I liked this one more than Introspective, but a lot of the tracks become repetitive.
Amazing album. I have re-lstened to it many times since first hearing it last year. Great vibes and great musical talent all around. One of my favorite jazz albums of all time. Really cool album cover too (which doesn't affect the music, but it never hurts to have a sweet cover).
This was the hardest album to find so far. Luckily, I believe all the songs (except maybe one) are on Spotify I just had to search for a number of them individually.
I had a great time with this one. It's oozing with style from his voice to his lyrics. I'm definitely going to be searching out some more tunes of his to listen to in the near future.
It was an enjoyable album, but I don't really have much to say about it.
I'm really mixed on this one. Some of the songs I was vibing with and others pushed me away. I'd never heard of Brian Eno before so I may need to check out some more of his work before forming an opinion on his music.
Now we're talking. An amazing debut album and it just may be my favorite Zeppelin album, but there are so many great ones to pick from. The feeling on this one is rawer, but the technicality of the music is still just as great.
A decent live album. The live version of I Want You to Want Me is so different than the studio version and I think most everyone agrees that the live version is the one to listen to (at least that's the version I heard on the radio growing up).
Some fun dancing music and some really good beats. I do love the singers voice, but I don't always love the repetitive nature of a lot of disco tracks.
Good album with some good tracks, but an odd choice to have the stereo mix play most of the music on the left and most of the singing on the right. This could have used a better mix.
He's got a decent voice, but his style isn't really my thing.
I prefer his work with The Smiths, but I did enjoy my listen of this solo album.
Wonderful voice and great lyricist.
A fun album with some good funky jams.
Didn't love it, but didn't hate it.
I love that they categorize their music as "clit rock." This was a really good album and made me deep dive into their earlier stuff. Good music all around from their 90s output.
I was excited for another Pixies album after enjoying Bossanova so much, but this one was a let down. I can see why they have a solid following, but I was very mixed on this album.
Started as nostalgic 90s sound, but quickly grew repetitive and I ended up not liking the album very much.
I can see why people like The White Stripes and think Jack White is so great, but this didn't make me an automatic fan. A fine album, but nothing special for me.
This had been on my list for awhile. I enjoyed their sound and I'm looking forward to listening to more of their music in the future.
A solid punk album. I'm more of a Clash fan myself, but I enjoyed this debut album quite a bit.
Funnily enough, I was actually listening to this album the day before the generator picked it for me. I've been familiar with Bob Marley & The Wailers for awhile, but I had never listened to a full album (besides the Legend compilation) before yesterday and I was immediately impressed by the flow of both this album and Exodus. This one has some blues inspiration in its sound and I was loving it. I'm excited to listen to more of their stuff and I hope there's more reggae on the list because I'm definitely a novice in the genre.
I'm pretty hit or miss on Costello. I think I enjoy more of his hits than what was presented on this album. I'll need to come back and relisten some time soon to really have a formed opinion of this one. It wasn't what I expected.
This wasn't really my thing. She has a nice voice and the songs are well composed, but I just didn't vibe with it.
I was surprised how much I ended up enjoying this one. They have a unique 90s sound and for whatever reason I didn't bounce off it this time like I had in the past.
This was not for me. I enjoyed some of the more orchestratral pieces, but the lead singer's voice didn't do much for me.
I'm not really a fan of country music. This was okay, but it didn't change my opinion of the genre much.
One of my favorite albums. Everything is firing on all cylinders. A fantastic group of rappers who's individual strengths helped cover others' weaknesses. This is definitely a must listen album, especially if you have any interest in rap (and more specifically the gangster rap of the late 80s and 90s). Fuck tha police.
Another great surprise from this project. I had no idea South African choir music would be up my alley, but their sound was great and I thoroughly enjoyed this one.
I liked this one a lot. I'm going to dive deeper into their discography. Another new find for this project. I'm glad.
I wouldn't say Im the biggest Velvet Underground fan, but I do enjoy the lyricism and soft nature of most of the tunes. This album was similar and I had a nice time. Interesting dude.
This one wasn't really for me. Enjoyed some of the tracks, but wasn't too impressed overall.
Pretty sad album. Put me in a reflective mood and while I enjoyed it overall I don't see myself coming back all too often.
A great album and a perfect debut for the group. Not my favorite band, but they really know how to play those instruments. Good stuff.
I'm not the biggest metal guy, but this was a solid album. I've sung "breaking the law, breaking the law" to myself many times over the years during many different events, but this was my first Priest album and I had a good time listening.
A solid collection of covers. I enjoy hearing his spin on songs, especially tracks from different genres like Hurt and Plastic Jesus. I'll probably give this one another spin sometime soon.
Nice chill album with some peaceful vibes. Great voice. Good one to put on while doing some house chores and just moving.
An amazing album. A great selection of songs and some wonderful covers.
